The Breede is renowned as the best estuary fishing location in the country. Tidal action reaches 55km upstream and kabeljou, grunter, leervis, steenbra and many other sought-after sea fish are caught here.
It is also knows as a bird-watching paradise and over 200 species have been recorded. The river naturally attracts fish-eating birds like the majestic fish eagle, osprey, fishing owl and kingfisher. The whole area is home to an amazing wealth of birdlife.
It is also an important breeding ground for rare birds and home to the Blue Crane, South Africa’s national bird.

Swellendam Reviews
La Belle Alliance restaurant is AMAZING for breakfast!
I enjoyed Aan De Eike Guesthouse, My room were clean and the service were excellent.I felt very safe enjoyed every moment since I arrived. Swellendam is beautiful with most beautiful views. The location was very convenient and would recommend The Republican Restaurant. The food and vibe were awesome. It's safe to walk in Swellendam, what a beautiful place for entertainment
